"bring macOS up to parity with Linux" sounds like a direction of development which wouldn't be very desirable for people like me.

unless the OS was behind on features that wouldn't affect you if they were there

There is not a single Linux feature you have named that would impede your day-to-day workflow.

Methinks the lady doth protest too much.

Linux users are like pickup truck drivers going to every motorcycle meeting to walk around complaining that motorcycles should be more like trucks. Different four strokes for different folks.

Mac users are like motorcycle drivers petitioning their city to replace the highway lanes with bike lanes. You are a second-class citizen here, having forgotten what roads are actually used for.

I'm sorry that you're absorbed in your fantasy, but it's not my job to accommodate it.

I says thou pratest more than enough in this hackintosh thread.

Motorcyclists are not drivers. Horses aren't cars.
